What day of creation were Adam and Eve made?

Answer 1

day six! Islamic Answer Abu Hurairah narrated that the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) said: "The best of days on which the sun has risen is Friday. One this day Adam was created, and on this day he was descended to earth." (al Bukhari)

Biblical text is specific, Adam was formed on the 8th day as the man to till the soil .... Genesis 2, after the 7th day or rest.

Answer 2

Around 4000 b.c. I'm thinking 4016 or 4068, this is coming from a source claimed to be reliable.

Many have attempted to determine the date of creation by using the genealogies of The Bible to work their way back to creation. This method is completely unreliable since there are gaps in the genealogies of unknown numbers of generations.

Answer 3

There are two creation stories in Genesis: (1) verses 1:1 to 2:4a; (2) 2:4b to 2:22; therefore there should be two answers. The first is recognised by scholars as the work of the Priestly (P) source, based on a Mesopotamian myth encountered by the Jews in Babylon, while the second is from the Yahwist (J) source and is therefore older in Judaism.
In the first Genesis creation story, Adam and Eve were created on the sixth day.
In the second Genesis creation story, Adam was created as the first act of creation by God, before he planted the garden or created the animals. This account does not say how many days the creation took, but Eve was created last of all. If we assume six days, the same length of time as in the first account, then Adam was created on the first day, while Eve would have been created on the sixth day.

Answer 4

This question arises out of confusion between the first biblical creation account (Genesis 1:1-2:4a) which states that God made humans, both male and female, on the sixth day, and the second creation account (Genesis 2:4b-25) which states that God made Adam and Eve but does not state whether this occurred over a period of days or even years.

Leon R. Kass (The Beginning of Wisdom: Reading Genesis) reminds us the first story ends with man, but the second begins with him. He explains we must scrupulously avoid reading into the second story any facts or notions taken from the first, and vice versa. Thus, while the first story has man and woman created after all other living creatures, the second has the creation of man, Adam, as the first act of creation, followed by all other living creatures, then a woman, Eve. If it took God more than one day to create the millions of animal species and for Adam to name each one in this account, then Adam and Eve were not even created on the same day. We therefore have to abandon the idea of Adam and Eve created on any particular day of the week.
